Positive | Dogtired1 (1 review) | On Jun 15, 2023, Dogtired1 wrote: I have ordered several times from Almost Eden. Their shipping is a little costly, but my orders have been well packaged and survived shipping quite well. I contacted their customer service about a hardy hibiscus that I thought was dead. They said pour hot water on it for a few days, and sure enough, it sprouted and has bloomed reliably for years in a container. I have another order out right now, and I hope it turns out as well as the previous ones. |

Their customer service is top notch and thier shipping is fast and accurate. I live in Ohio and my plants arrived meticulously packed . Each plant had a wet towel on the soil and was wrapped in plastic and secured with rubber bands so their was no spillage. They were taped to cardboard and tightly packed so they wouldn't be moving around in transit. All the plants in my $220 order arrived without a single branch broken. I am a customer for life! |

I decided to take a chance and order from this company because they were the only place I found with all of the uncommon varieties I wanted. |

Positive | RebeccaLynn (25 reviews) | On Jun 26, 2021, RebeccaLynn Winston Salem, NC (Zone 7a) wrote: I placed an order to Almost Eden on June12, requesting delivery the week of June 21. Today, June 26, a very carefully packed box arrived containing the Passiflora 'Lady Margaret' plant. It was in excellent condition with soil moist and leaves well hydrated, even though FedEx had transported the box from Louisiana to North Carolina in the heat of summer. Every one of the many leaves were perfect. I have wanted a pink passion flower vine for a while and was very pleased to see the Almost Eden had them for sale. Many thanks to SB who wrapped the potted plant and Jm who boxed it up for mailing. Both are very conscientious people. I will be ordering from Almost Eden again! |

I love the waiting list feature so I can get that reminder email when items are back in stock. 5 stars!! |
Positive | skasikm (1 review) | On Apr 15, 2021, skasikm New Braunfels, TX wrote: Almost Eden and John are fantastic. My Pineapple Guava and Purple Passion Vine arrived in wonderful condition. All plants were well rooted and healthy. The secure packaging was amazing. The pots were taped down inside the box so they didn't wiggle around and placed in cardboard sleeves. Wet towels kept the root ball moist. I will definitely buy from Almost Eden again. Their prices are very good and the shipping was fast. |

I purchased these to plant on my lot in SC a few years before building to get them going. Looking forward to giving them more business. |

I was so surprised at the size and quality of the plant because the cost was cheap. I will definitely continue to purchase my bromeliads and unusual plants from Almost Eden:) |

Positive | w12bstrong (1 review) | On Oct 3, 2020, w12bstrong Belleview, FL wrote: I AM EXTREMELY happy. I cannot believe the excellent job they did with the packaging and shipping. I ordered one plant from another company and it came so poorly packed it was basically a total loss. Dried out, smashed and broken. Eden Plants arrived wet, sealed, completely intact and green!!! The plant stalks were suspended in the center of the box and the box was oversized to protect the plants. The cost of shipping was VERY REASONABLE considering the time, effort and materials involved. John is quick to reply with answers to any questions and is extremely friendly! You have earned my business for as long as I am alive and you're in business. I look forward to more purchases in the future. EXCELLENT JOB!!! Thank you! |

I received my order this week and everything was healthy and packed well. Great company. I think their prices and shipping costs are reasonable. They have some beautiful plants that you won’t easily find. I highly recommend them. |
Positive | swiggs (1 review) | On Aug 13, 2020, swiggs Coatesville, IN wrote: I got my first order today from Almost Eden and I was so impressed! It was packaged very well and the plants were strong and not wilted. They took the time to wrap with wet towels so the soil was still moist when I got them. They also packaged them in a safe way so you don't have to worry about damage to the plant. I have ordered plants from a neighboring state from me and it took twice as long and the plants were stressed when I got them. I definitely recommend buying plants from here because you will get a healthier happier plant. Thank you! |

Positive | treckymom77 (1 review) | On Jun 9, 2020, treckymom77 Saint Augustine, FL wrote: Probably the most efficient, customer-centered mail order plant company I have ever dealt with. The order came on the shipping date specified and I was amazed at how well it was packaged for shipment. The plants were in superb condition. It may not be the least expensive place to shop, but it stands heads and shoulders above it's competition. |

I ordered four plants from them and they arrived beautifully packaged and in pristine shape. I wish the shipping costs were a bit less expensive, but I have never been disappointed by the quality of their plants and recommend them highly. |

Positive | Kingjv200 (5 reviews) | On Feb 10, 2020, Kingjv200 Salinas, CA wrote: I only recently started ordering from this company a few months ago and I'm very satisfied with both the quality and exceptional customer service of this place! I do think the prices are just a little high but their selection and quality are great. I started with a test order of 6 Salvia 'Kisses & Wishes' since no one else literally has them available. They came in very well packaged but sadly 2 of them were a little small and damaged - I contacted the company about this and they quickly sent me 2 replacements attached to another order I placed for some 'Cuphea Schumanii' plants. The gentleman I spoke too was very kind and understanding I can certainly see why this company has so many glowing testimony's - I've very excited to have discovered them and will certainly be ordering more things from them as they become available - just know what you are getting are essentially starter plants and I'd recommend growing them up a bit in gallons before placement but these plants certainly look like they've got a head start! |

Positive | Calcifer (4 reviews) | On Jun 26, 2019, Calcifer Mountain View, CA (Zone 9b) wrote: Very pleased with my purchase of 3 figs baby plants from Almost Eden. Despite the heatwave in California, they arrived looking healthy and happy with perky green leaves. 3 days later, 2 tiny figlets popped out of one of the fig plants! John, the owner is always there (during business hours) to pick up the phone and answer questions. The package was sent priority mail, and each plant is expertly packed and protected in cylinder containers. Almost Eden carries so many exotic fruits and plants varieties I'm definitely a return customer. |

Positive | lunared (2 reviews) | On May 22, 2019, lunared Ocala, FL wrote: I was having difficulty finding a luna red hibiscus with a reputable nursery until Dave's Garden came up. There I saw Almost Eden in their top 30 nurseries that had luna reds. They gave me a choice of dates for shipping, and it arrived 2 days after shipping in excellent condition, lovingly and carefully packaged in a small pot, secured, and still damp with newspaper on top. I was able to track it's travel via an e-mail and tracking number Almost Eden gave me. It came with a certificaion from the State of Louisiana that is had been inspected and found to be free of insects and diseases. I am so happy to have found Almost Eden. I planted it right away. Now I can watch it grow ! Thank you Dave's garden and Almost Eden ! |

The plant was beautiful, well packed and arrived in great shape. The Sweet Olive is growing well and had a large, well-rooted root ball. It transplanted without a problem. John at Almost Eden is wonderful to work with and very knowledgeable. I would very highly recommend this nursery for all your plant needs!!! I give them a 5 out of 5! |

Positive | AndieBee (1 review) | On Feb 12, 2019, AndieBee Deland, FL wrote: I love Almost Eden! I ordered from them on two separate occasions recently. My first order was for a Confederate Rose. It was securely wrapped and arrived in perfect condition with seven buds on it already. I planted it in a pot to carry it indoors on cold winter days and will plant it in the yard come spring. Every one of those buds bloomed! My second purchase was for a Rose of Sharon. It was also excellently wrapped and arrived in perfect condition. Their prices, customer service and all I rank as top notch! I will definitely do business with them again! |
